Minalan gave up a promising career as a professional warmage to live the quiet life of a village spellmonger in the remote mountain valley of Boval. It was a peaceful, beautiful little fief, far from the dangerous feudal petty squabbles of the Five Duchies, on the world of Callidore. There were cows. Lots of cows. And cheese. For six months things went well: He found a quaint little shop, he befriended the local lord, the village folk loved him, he found a sharp young apprentice to help out, and, best yet, he met a comely young widow with the prettiest eyes.

They are the fatemarked. Misunderstood. Worshipped. Hated. Murdered at birth. Their time to step into the light has come. An ancient prophecy foretold their coming, the chosen few who will bring peace to a land embroiled in a century of mistrust and war. When kings start dying, that hope and belief swiftly turns to fear. Roan Loren is one of the fatemarked, but has hidden his mark of power his entire life, fearing the damage it might cause to those around him. A great evil is coming. He can't hide anymore.

Seventy-five years ago, the dragons fell from the sky. We thought they were just meteorites - six terrifying explosions rang the world like a bell. When the dust settled, we went on with our lives as though nothing had happened. More than a decade later, five of the eggs hatched. The dragons that emerged were small and weak. They kept to the shadows, working in secret to persuade people to do their bidding, offering magic as payment and reward. Years passed...and still we didn't notice the evil growing in our midst.

Summary

In the epic conclusion of The War Chronicles, Lirak must fulfill the Kul-Wi prophecy. If he fails, the Faceless One will send an army of sentinels to erase all trace of humanity from the world and begin another blood-soaked age.

What the gods don't know is that Lirak plans to end their savage game forever. But to succeed he'll first have to overcome his own guilt and fear.

drudgery

I've never had an audio book be difficult to listen to, I managed 13 hours of this and it was entirely filled with the main characrer whining. I'm not generally that fussy with fantasy, but there has to be some break in the doom and gloom or you just can't appreciate it.

Hate the main character

What a bit*h Lirac is. I’ve never despised a main character. Overall the story is good but lirac is a whine little self loathing poor me loser. I can’t stand when an author believes his character needs to have a moral dilemma over killing to survive. Are you kidding me. Grow up.

I Love Dragon Wars!

This is the 3rd and final book in the series and it is the best of the 3. Interesting characters and beasts are introduced and the prophecy becomes clear only at the end of the book. I cried, I laughed, I cheered. The narrator delivered a stellar performance while reading the battle scenes. I would love to see this series on the big screen. Nicely done, Mr. Golden. More to come from you in the future, I hope.
